VALVE.

Application tiled December il, 1911.

t linown that l, Anonimi! J. CoLLAn, tzitizen oit the United States,residing at Y in the County of Siskiyou :lndStato ifornin, have inventednew and useful .'einents in Valves, of which the fol .owing :ispecification.

ist' f invention relates to valves of that class etti i is tie,-.gned tocontrol the liow of liqin 'pipes and for similar purposes.

it eo'npxises :i segmental carrier adapted oscillate in a. sector-shapedcasing, which is orot'ideti with a sont in the lino of the coni it.y andn valve upon the carrier is adapted to @loge upon the seat when theCurrier is n'zoveti down :about its axis-so as to Close tno ooncluit.Means are provided to Close i* valve upon its seat by the pressure oftlowing current, and means are provided i said pressure from one side toother in such a manner as to r sind open the valve.

also comprises details of hiel". Will be more fully ex` rence to theaccompanying draw-finge in 'Whichl'igure l is n longitudinal section ofa portion of the conduit and my `valve carrier and attachments.

The Carrier has its lower faire @ricavo-convex so that theupper Convex fit-ee of the Valve lies within the coneavity of theCarrier. The valve has a, channel formeel in it, as shown at 5, and thevhead of Specification of Letters s tent.
